DIGITALIS 
Foxglove 
For stately and picturesque beauty i.t 
is not to be surpassed, and, planted in 
masses in the garden among shrubs or 
naturalized on the edge of woods, in the 
orchards or along brooks, it is extremely 
effective and satisfacory. It is a biennial, 
but, as it renews itself from self-sown 
seed, it may be treated as a perennial.

long, crowded with big bell-shaped blos¬
